Hello from Ghana!

Hey everyone! How is everything going? It is kind
of weird to think that it is getting to be winter there and that it is
just getting warmer and hotter and humid here, but I think I am finally
starting to get used to the weather here... we got to watch both
afternoon sessions of General Conference yesterday! That was pretty
sweet... the bishop let us watch it in his office in English while
everyone else watched it in the chapel in Fante. So the bishop has AC
in his office and I was FREEZING the entire time... I actually like the
heat... the only time it really bothers me is when the sun is scorching
down on me... but yeah... conference was pretty sweet from the two
session that I was able to watch... I have to say it was kind of weird
to see that many white people but I love the messages! And we were able
to get two investigators to come to church and see conference! First
time since I have been in this area that anyone has come... but then
again when I came there was only one investigator. This last week was
pretty good... we taught and taught and taught some more. This week was
AWESOME! It is weird that I am almost done with a transfer here in
Nkanfoa... and Elder Caveness is coming back this Friday so only four more days of a threesome and then back to just Elder Adams and me.

So... one thing that I have realized this week is that there are
miracles that are happening in every aspect of our lives... we just have
to open our eyes to them and pay attention. As long as we are being
diligent and doing all that we should be, we will be blessed in many
different ways. In District Meeting this last week we were challenged
to, at the end of the day, to just take one moment to take a look at the
day and see all the blessings that the Lord has provided us with... it
really is amazing to see how the Lord really has a hand in everything
that we are doing. Yep!
